Dax aktuell: Leitindex bleibt oberhalb der 26.000-Punkte-Marke – und markiert zwischenzeitlich Rekord

Düsseldorf - German investors continue to display record optimism on the country's stock market, as the Dax index starts the trading day at 26,140 points, a 0.5% increase from the previous day's close. The leading index had previously reached a record high of 26,266 points on Monday. For the first time in its history, the Dax surpassed the 26,000-point mark on Monday, ending the day at 26,001 shares, a 1.5% gain.

The leading index was recently boosted by heavyweight stocks, with Telekom, SAP, and Rheinmetall being among the largest gainers. Over 65 million shares changed hands on Monday, the same number as early July. "This indicates that the new Dax highs are driven more by expectations of better international business and less by hopes for a turnaround in Germany's economic outlook," said Jochen Stanzl, Chief Market Analyst at Consorbank.
